Maybe the three of you should do the Great Ocean Road scenic route after leaving Synchro's, which ends at Warrnambool, where I could join you? I have a goal to make this trip.

Just thinking....
Most definately keep that in mind.

Yep, a great way would be the coast road all the way down and around,then across the ferry at Sorrento, the great ocean road and back thru the goldfields area.

I know the roads well and all the best sights to see.

Nice! Might even buy one of those famous vanilla slices at Sorrento. Access to Sorrento is easy from our place - straight down East Link and the Peninsular Freeway. Don't stand between me and a Sorrento vanilla slice.

Bull dust looks like the alkali dust in southern oregon. With moisture it softens to peanut butter consistency, plus it is usually deep. Peat dust is also fun.

Hard to imagine that, that part of Australia gets a huge amount of rain in the wet season and becomes a no go zone even for the best of Four Wheel Drive vehicles. The roads are very much improved today but it still provides quite a challenge for the those that attempt it.
